So I love the name Matilda and like the nn Tilly , dh doesn't like Matilda but loves Tilly .... I don't want to call her Tilly as I can't imagine her older with that name, my thoughts are we called her Matilda but we and others use the nn Tilly- then when she's older she can sort of decide what she wants to be known as ie Matilda, Tilly , matty.

Dh isn't really considering any other name, I'm finding he just dismisses everything else I suggest and when I ask him for suggestions he always cones back to Tilly!

Can anyone recommend any other names ... We have a rubbish and long surname ! So need something quite short (ish) middle name is going to be Alivia- mix of Alice and Sylvia our grandparents names Tia Grin xxx
